Neighborhood book club gone wrong... I was hooked from the beginning. This had secrets, lies, love, evil, friends, family and betrayal. It really has a bit of everything. It was fast paced with excellent writing and an overall easy read. It had a great mix if characters whom some you loved and others you loved to hate. Secrets are revealed through the book so there was never a dull moment. The book also had plenty of twist to keep you guessing. I loved it!

Absolutely loved the extract and intrigued!
This chapter gave an insight of the main characters meeting for a book club evening: the starting point is captivating and the development of the story is very gripping..
Can’t wait to read the rest of the book.

I'm a big fan of Joshilyn Jackson and I've read all of her books but this one may be the best yet! Her writing style is compelling and unmistakable. I can't wait to find out Amy's past and how Roux is connected.

I’m hooked after just the first chapter! This book has been on my TBR list for months now, and August can’t come soon enough.

Very excited after reading the excerpt and think this will be one of the best thrillers of the summer. Let's hope the August weather is as hot as the plot was. Looking forward to reading more that's for sure!

I am so bummed that this was just an excerpt. The storyline really pulls you in and has you wondering more about Amy's secret.

I'd forgotten that this was just an extract so I got to the end of the chapter and thought, "Wait! You can't leave me hanging like that!" But apparently you can! Now I'm just biding my time waiting for this book to be released as it had me hooked from the beginning!

Thank to netgalley and the author/publisher for the Arc for my honest review.
It’s nearly impossible to leave an accurate review based on ONE chapter. :/. So I won’t be.

It is difficult to leave a review after reading only one chapter but I think this will turn out to be a very good book. I am keen to read the rest of the book

it's very difficult to provide a review of an extract. I don't feel I can provide a constructive review

Was this review helpful?

I didn't quite realize that this was just the first chapter. I don't feel that there was enough to give a complete review of the book. What I read was interesting and intriguing but whether it will hold up for the entire book, I could not say.

This extract made me want the read the book even more. The writing is eloquent and sophisticated. I cannot wait to see this book on the shelves so that I can finally read the book in its entirety.

Thank you Netgalley for providing me with an ARC of this Extract. I look forward to finishing it at a later date

Can't really say much now, and looking forward to read the book upon its release.

Thankyou to NetGalley, Bloomsbury Publishing, Raven Books and the author, Joshilyn Jackson, for the opportunity to read an extract of the upcoming novel Never Have I Ever in exchange for an honest and unbiased opinion.
Well. What can I say. I am extremely excited to read more of this story. I am definitely hooked.
What the extract provided was the opening chapters in what promises to be a very intriguing story.
I will definitely be reading this novel when it is released. I need to see where the author is going to take me.

Damn, I missed that I was only getting an excerpt! Anyway my fault and I love what I read The book grabbed me right away and I can't wait to finish it!

Holy moly, the first chapter of this book sucked me right in! I both want to keep reading and am apprehensive about what I'm going to read next- it's the perfect amount of tension. Amy Whey is a new mom and part of a neighborhood book club. While she isn't the official 'host' of the monthly book club, it does take place at her house. The book opens on book club night, and a new neighbor, Roux, joins the group of moms. She is like a wind of change to the group dynamic, intriguing some and upsetting others. As the evening winds down, Roux entices a few of the moms into a version of the game Never Have I Ever that jumps right to confessions of past sins. Apparently Amy has something in her past that Roux knows about. I go back to my belief that Roux is an ill wind that is going to stir up all kinds of trouble for both Amy and the neighborhood. I can't wait to read the rest of the book!
